Verified from official government sources

Vape Retail Rules

Miami cannot enforce its own tobacco or vape retailer licensing rules. Fla. Stat. Section 569.0025 preempts to the state of Florida the regulation of the marketing, sale, or delivery of tobacco products, with parallel preemption for nicotine products under Section 569.315. Retail tobacco and nicotine dealer permits are issued by the Florida Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco (ABT), not the City of Miami.

Few Restrictions

Tobacco Age Restrictions

Miami enforces the federal Tobacco 21 minimum age and Florida SB 1080 (2021), which raised the state minimum age to 21 for tobacco and vape sales. Florida state law preempts local tobacco regulation, so Miami has no local flavor ban or supplemental license. The Florida Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco licenses retailers and conducts compliance checks.

Flavored Tobacco Bans

The City of Miami has no enforceable local flavored tobacco or vape ban. Fla. Stat. Section 569.0025 and Section 569.315 preempt to the state of Florida the regulation of the marketing, sale, or delivery of tobacco and nicotine products. The only flavor restrictions in effect in Miami come from federal law: the FDA limits cartridge-based e-cigarettes to tobacco and menthol flavors, and federal law bans characterizing flavors other than tobacco and menthol in cigarettes.
